Have you considered - Tarbbatigan Cars Rehabilitation Tip (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a great one of a kind product for learning how to repair your car the easy way minus the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my GF at last got astronomical results with it

    "It's styled like a hot hatch so it should have an e-brake that you can rip on so that you can do things that are not appropriate."
    - Big Sarah
    This is the coolest quote ever and I cannot agree more, plus I just love the simplicity of a regular cabled e-brake and traditional handle/pedal/whatever. You know how to put it on, know how to take it off, know when it's on, know when it's not and don't have to use a Konami code to make it function.

    I'm repeating myself, but I really love your car reviews just as much as your project car videos. Adding Little Sarah has been an added bonus. I love her facial expressions especially in your acceleration (when you-re testing a car that can actually accelerate) and braking tests. With Little Sarah you don't need a G-force meter, her face says it all. You also take us to great places and have interesting shots and perspectives to show us. I'm looking forward to the next car test.

    2.0 NA 168 horse? That’s great! In the Netherlands we get a 1.2 Turbo with 120 hp .... a 1.8 Hybrid from the Prius and a new 2.0 hybrid with 180 horse. But not a high(er) power manual. We should honestly get the boxer motor from the FRS & BRZ planted in this baby. And the Ford Focus ST and RS are on there way.

      @Dethmuerte If it's a Toyota engine, a rule of thumb is to always use the factory recommended brand and weight of oil. OR it will surely end badly .

    • @Dave-fx5zw
      @Dave-fx5zw 5 років тому

      @Dethmuerte I'm not too familiar with this engine specifically, but generally speaking, Japanese manufacturers have larger tolerances than European vehicles, one of the reasons they've historically been pretty reliable.
      All manufacturers are moving to lower weight oils, it's an efficiency thing. Less pumping loss, lower film strength, coupled with low tension piston rings and low friction bearings and you end up with an assembly that spins a lot easier. It's been the case for several years, and unfortunately so far it's been a bit of a trade off of efficiency vs longevity.
      Manufacturers are still getting the shift to extreme efficiency worked out. This applies to engines with higher outputs too, it's not just about economy. Several European engines have active valving to regulate created oil pressure to a minimum, allowing for a 'thicker' oil with lower pumping loss. It's a great setup when the engine is new and everything is working as designed.

    Test drove one of these recently, and I gotta say that in an older city with shorter, smaller roads the relative lack of power makes this thing incredibly fun! You can rev it out during normal commuting while still staying (mostly) under the speed limit. Better driving dynamics for my taste than the new Mazda3 6MT!

    Hey! What a fun review- a road trip. And you picked such fun music for it, too! It's so entertaining to have both of you in the car reviews. It's just so much fun. One thing you could start to include in your reviews- how nice and cold is the air conditioning in that thing? In hot weather like that I always like a car that blasts large volumes of ice cold air at my face. But some cars just kind of sneeze cool air towards me and that's not enough. Anyway- just my two cents. Love from Michigan!

    Slow cars are the best way to learn how to REALLY drive... You have to always be up in the revs, learn how to turn with momentum, know how to brake and keep speed... I "Learned" how to drive in a 97 VW Jetta 2.0. The slowest car known to man, but I could outdrive people in faster cars because I knew my car and how she needed to be driven. I'ts a shame because I owned a Chrysler Conquest TSI before the Jetta.

Maybe that’s why Toyota is offering 2 years free maintenance🤷🏻‍♂️I’m thinking of trading in my 06 Cobalt SS/SC for one of these or a Focus ST. The reason I am leaning toward the Corolla is reliability. I feel it would make a better long term daily, so once it’s paid off I can pick up a fun weekend/track car.
